ALEX ANDRIA.
THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER /.
THE New York Sun says:

docs anybody in Atlanta imagine that II
Mr.. Jefferson Davis should be invited 10 al
tend tho Piedmont Exposition as the city 3
puest 10 meet President Cleveland, the lat
ter would not find that pressing public du-
lies compelled him to abandon the pleasing
engagement, greatly to his regret? There
is no good moral reason why this should be
so, but it would be so, nevertheless"
There are people who know that tue real
reason why Mr. Cleveland suddenly changed
his mind, and refused to take his wife to the
Richmond fair, was the dread that the fact
of her meeting the daughter of Mr.. Davis
there would raise a clamor at the North. Ii
the fear that a similar clamor would arise
from mis- meeting Mr.. Davis at Atlanta
would induce him to withdraw his accept
ance of an invitation to visit that city, that
also should be known, and the people of-At-
lanta are not true representatives OF the
South if they permit the matter TO remain
in doubt. The question having been raised
failure TO invite Mr.. Davis would now no.
only be a public aud notorious slight by
Southern men to the most distinguished
man of their section. but an implied insult
to the memory of their own fathers and
brothers who died in the cause OF which
they made Mr. Davis the chief, and show s
deficiency Of self respect Of which Southern
men in former times were utterly incapable
